Is the 150 dollar bill worth it? Would I need an external oil-cooler for sure since the oil would be hotter than normal without piston squirters?

Hey Mike,

See Brad's post on his dyno room, and the turbo guy from Garret? Maybe a 914/4 turbo development program is possible???

Hey Scott,

i know of a few shops that'll install them, I want to know if it's worth the extra expense.


Brad know's I'm doing the Turbo motor, but there is no real market for a /4 turbo kit...it's not worth SSI do spend money on a project that will get tons of emails and questions from dreamers that have no intentions on ever buying it.

That was Bernie Bergman's experience on his turbo kit years ago, lots of talk, no money.

I'll *probably* persue a turbo kit. But I promise it wont be cheap and it will all fit and work perfectly before ever going to market.

Expect a 3-4k price tag.

Intercooled.. laptop programmable injection/boost controller.

After we finish 3-4 exhaust projects.

Mike, if your rods are nice and tight on the shoulder you could cut a grove say .015-.020 deep and .100-.150 wide pointed towards the piston. If you’re running a BFP (big f-in’ pump) you won’t have any oil control problems.
I’ve done this before on beetle engines. Oil temps won’t change.

It depends on what your doing with the motor. I had done to the engine I run on the track. When your shoveling money into a track engine, another $150 was trivia. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

I dont think that is what he is talking about..

He wants the 3mm squirters that go into the main webs and "shoot" oil onto the backside of a piston like a 911 engine.

With the 30mm pump he's planning on running the groove in the rod will do the same thing.

You read the PP post, didn't you Geoff! Ya beat me to the posting of the pic!

Yes I did! But this is the pic I was looking for and couldn't find. Its a good mod for the rods and it doesn't cost $150. Was recommended for GD,GE and GC motors by VW.

Brining this back up to the front of the line for more details please.
Not sure , based upon the picture, where this groove gets cut.
Does anyone have a rod to show that this modification has been completed?

I've never seen the rod notch in person and I'm doubtful it's effective at squirting. Here's a pic or real Porsche squirters installing in a Type 1 case. Thanks for bringing this up. I'm gonna pursue it for my 2270

isnt there also a mod that drills a very small hole in the side of the rod and squirts oil out?

I read something about it but I never saw a picture.
Maybe that was to squirt oil on the cylinder walls....
